Vodafone HG553 Password

Vodafone HG553 Password

I can swear Vodafone hg553 password (default password) is the winner of the dumbest default password ever. It was a challenge for me to find it.
Actually I found this shiny ADSL router in my old things and I was happy at first. I try to guess hg553 password, but after some try I changes my mind and decided to reset the modem.
After the process of resetting, it came up and I thought the default username would be "admin" and password would be something like "admin" or "1234", I was wrong. I googled it and nearly none of the links were helping me. I was going crazy little by little. As a last effort I tried to get get my hands on the CD which was in the package, unfortunately it didn't help and I can't remember how many pages I went down on a froum to find out the golden key.

The Vodafone HG553 Password is: VF-EShg553

(I assume you can guess the username which is admin)
After all difficulties I had finding the hg553 password I put a label behind the router containing the default hg553 password written in red (I always change defaults for sure and I suggest you that you do the same for security reasons).

You should know something interesting about this old router. It support a 3G usb dongle which is a great way to make redundancy and have a backup internet in case of any connection problem. Although it doesn't support all kind of dongles, it supports a long list and for home or small office use having this option is of a great importance to have a fault tolerance option. Another thing is the appearance, it's white and have some blue lights which stands it out of an ordinary device.



I hope it would be helpful for you, if you had this device.
